The end of the Han Dynasty during a period of history known as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms based on a book written 1,000 years after the events. TecmoKoei's long-running history of Dynasty Warriors games along with the ever-excellent Total War series tackling this period, we're sure to be in for a treat. Side note, Dynasty Warriors 9 is evidentally terrible. Second side note, Alex doof's his mic like 6 or 7 times while recording...you have been warned. Third side note, let us know if you want to hear Alex's renditions of other periods of history.

So today we talk about the film and TV trailers that were part of this year's superbowl. We didn't watch it but we had a catch up later on the old YouTubes and we go over what we saw. Everything ranging from Infinity War and Solo to A Quiet Place and Skyscraper, we give you our initial impressions and analyse the trailers in our own way. I'd also like to state, for the record, that I was right about Han Solo's origin story!

So today we give a quick review to the third and final installment of the Thor segment of the MCU - Thor Ragnarok. We've been promising to watch and review for a little while now so we're quite behind the flow on this one. We've also been saying it was directed by James Gunn (Sorry Taika) but we were mistaken, but we give you a fairly decent explanation as to why that was.

So today we somewhat revisit our previous podcast about being married. We talk about why it's a good thing, disprove some of the common tropes and reassure you that it's not really a big deal.

This episode we talk about, completely spoiler-free, the 2016 Doctor Who xmas special. Just to clarify, we recorded this episode on the same day we say the special (Sunday 17th). We promise we don't go into specifics, we just give an overall view on the episode as a whole and talk about some of the previous episodes and specials we've seen. Special thanks to the BBC for putting a lot of faith in the Whovians lucky enough to see this episode early, we'll repay the favour and avoid any spoilers or specific details!

So today we go through our first impressions of the latest of the new wave of Star Wars films, The Last Jedi. We snagged some midnight screening tickets and we talk about what we thought in an overall way. No spoilers!

So today we talk about the cup full of awfulness that is the news that Quentin Tarantino has a pitch for an R-Rated Star Trek film...pause for collective global sigh of resignation. Yes, unfortunately we now have to waste our time watching this just to justify our seething hatred...seriously...this is not a happy episode people. I usually have more wit about me when writing these descriptions but...I can't be that guy today. Side note, less sad and slightly redeeming, we have some exciting news at the end of the podcast (shameless blackmail) so stay tuned for that!

So today we take a very limited look at another of Amazon's up and coming TV shows, Paul Scheer's TV adaptation of the 1999 cult favourite Galaxy Quest. As with other Amazon TV shows, the details are few and far between but we talk about the few bits of information we could get our hands on.

So today we take a look at the recently released teaser trailer for the new Avengers film and we basically just go on about how awesome it looks. There are some analytics in there too, such as who will be in it and where the characters are at currently due to their respective films.

So today we go back to Season 1 and revisit a discussion we had about Seth MacFarlane's new show The Orville and the new Netflix attempt, Star Trek: Discovery. We gave both a fair shot and obviously have our winner and loser, but let's talk about it!

-!SPOILER ALERT!- Today we talk about Netflix's latest triumph on their world-class streaming service, Stranger Things seasons 1 & 2! The Duffer Brothers bring their first big hit to the stage in a fantastic way and we don't have enough good things to say about it!

Today we discuss the ongoing head-shaking fiasco that has become the age of reboots. We talk about a couple of good example, but mainly moan about why this is showing a lack of imagination and original thinking from today's producers, writers and directors.

So today we discuss the aspects of Amazon's latest TV extravaganza, their adaptation of a Lord of the Rings TV show. We discuss the few details that have been released so far...that is to say almost none. We can theorise though!

Today we talk about an observation we've been pondering for a little while now and that is how TV shows are comparable to our own personal relationships. We just talk about how sometimes there are ups and downs, laughs and tears, sometimes you want to quit but can't and sometimes you've quit but want to go back. Fun.

Today we talk about that age old geek question, Iron Man vs Batman...or more specifically Marvel Comics vs DC Comics. Although we do talk about it strictly from the stand point of film releases, even more specifically the gross amount they made in their opening weekends in the USA.

So, today we have a discussion about Avengers: Infinity War - Part 1, mainly about the absolute scale of the project and how difficult it's going to be to bring these characters together. Overall, Alex thinks they chose the wrong writers and directors (same guys that did Captain America 2 & 3) but he personally thinks they'll do a decent job of bringing the characters together. Maggie, on the other hand, doesn't have a whole lot of faith that they'll give the depth and complexities of the situation justice.

So, today we talk about the long wait for new books from our favourite authors, how long we wait for them, how we react to bad news or no news at all and debate whether it's our right as customers to complain and moan or whether we have to take into consideration the lives authors have too. Some authors publish multiple books a year, whereas some take the time to enjoy life in-between book releases.

So today we talk about being married at quite a young age, the impact it's had on our lives and the misconceptions from those around us. People seem to have this adverse opinion about marriage that it somehow 'tames' a person or destroys their lives, but we don't feel that's the case. We're not here to talk about how people should be married or how people should be in love, just about our personal experiences. FOREWARNING - This is cheesy.

If you've looked on our website or our profiles you'll know that we own a dog. A big, fluffy dog called Duke. We're not sure what breed he is specifically or what age he is (the rescue we got him from didn't have the complete profile) but if you imagine a 7 year old white German Shepherd (we think he's actually either a Swiss Shepherd or a German Shepherd/Samoyed cross) who is totally harmless and lovely. Today we talk about some of the issues of owning a big dog, especially as a young couple, and some of the misconceptions people like us face.
